Live music is awesome. For my money, it’s the way classical music should be experienced. Recordings are nice when you don’t have the option, but experiencing the symphonic soundscape washing over me is second to none. However, there are a lot of things that can deter people before they even make it to their seats that classical musicians often take for granted. There is the jargon (concertos, opus, etc.), other languages to figure out, traditions, attire, and all sorts of rules that come along with this experience. Fortunately, many of those things are changing for the better. On this episode we discuss those changes and why some traditions are outdated, while others make complete sense.
